Day Fifteen – Wilhelmshaven to Obernburg
by bretzelitos
Last day of travel yesterday – and for sure with a good replanning of routing. But I did not mind at all.
After having breakfast in the ATLANTIC Hotel in Wilhelmshaven, I took a taxi towards the Central Station where I started my journey at 0844 in the morning. Plan has foreseen to travel via Osnabrueck and Duesseldorf back to my parent’s home in Obernburg. Just after leaving Oldenburg, I received the message that the train to Duesseldorf has been exchanged and has at minimum 40 minutes delay due to some issues close to Wolfsburg – means, I do not have my reserved place anyhow and I will not be able to reach my train connection in Duesseldorf by any means. Hence: Replanning! I consulted the DB Navigator and found out that there is a connection possibility via Hannover and Wuerzburg towards Aschaffenburg – even with enough places available.
That was reserved quickly and I took a Regional Express train to Hannover, changing there into an ICE to Wuerzburg – the relation takes only two hours. And then back to Aschaffenburg through the Spessart mountain hills with an ICE in just 38 minutes.
The last trip of this 15-day-journey was with the local Regional Bahn to Obernburg stopping at every house.
My dad picked me up at Obernburg train station and brought me to their house – where two cats were waiting for me 🙂
Many thanks both for sharing your trip. A great journey. Thoroughly enjoyed. Felt like I was on holiday with you guys.
